New evidence from the field

Assaf Kleiman, Adam Kaplan, Israel Finkelstein

Building 338 at Megiddo is one of the most impressive Iron Age structures unearthed in the southern Levant. Scholars have debated its function and its dating - Iron IIA or Iron 1IB. In this article we present new evidence from excavations conducted in the vicinity of the building that suggests that it was constructed in the Iron IIB. We then place these results within the context of Iron II Megiddo.
